two simple words that could easily change everything
“who cares”
as soon you said it there was no going back
I let you in and created a cage for my guilt, and kept it locked
I put it in the back of my mind and swore it was going to be fine
maybe not now but it would be
people wonder why I don't want a boyfriend
maybe it's because you kissed me the same way you kiss her
and when I left that night the next morning you were with her
and maybe it's the 74% of men who say they would cheat on their wife if they knew they wouldn't get caught
and you made me promise we wouldn't get caught
I knew things between us would change
but I didn’t expect you to change me
and I didn’t expect to see you differently, but I do
you're composed of lies, and secrets behind closed doors
thats what I am to you
a secret behind a closed door, that you never want to open
you put locks on the door so nobody will know what happened behind it
meanwhile I want to open it and scream the truth to everyone who will listen
but I don't
because what I want more than the truth is your love
something I know is impossible to have
but I know I’ll never stop trying to get
I told you I wanted to be with you
and you said I could be
but I meant forever and you meant just for the night
